(72 days) Open-pollinated. Who will have this dance? Our long-time Seeds line-stocker Gary Athenian will. He calls Rumba “the best carrot I’ve ever grown.” When he brought it to Nash’s Organic Produce in Sequim, WA, they admired its crisp texture and adopted it as their favorite as well, no small distinction as they breed carrots, their most important crop. Last offered by Johnny’s in 2005, Rumba has since been hard to find. A straight tapered 6–7" Nantes type that matures slowly and resists oversizing, it is great for fall harvest and winter storage. Its aromatic strong carrot flavor is admittedly not for everyone. Though Roberta also liked it, Gene and CR demured. But then again, not everyone can rumba. ①
